Everclear to Rock 10th Anniversary of Entertainment at Suwanee Town Center

Submitted by City of Suwanee

Alternative rock band Everclear will headline the City of Suwanee’s August 16 Concert & Wing Fest. This summer’s community concert marks the 10th anniversary of music, movies, festivals, and more at Suwanee’s Town Center Park. Sean Mullins headlined Town Center Park’s very first concert on August 14, 2004.

Everclear was Billboard’s Modern Rock Band of the Year in 1998. Over a decade from 1994-2004, the band had three platinum or double-platinum albums and several hits, including “Father of Mine,” “Wonderful,” and “Santa Monica.”

This summer’s community concert is being combined with a wing festival that will feature a variety of the saucy, finger-lickin’ fare from area restaurants. The wing festival and musical performances will begin at 5:30 p.m. at Town Center Park with Everclear taking the stage about 8:30.

Hunter Callahan, Nine Times Blue, and The Athens Band will perform before Everclear.

A celebrity wing-eating contest will be part of the evening’s activities. Attendees also will be invited to vote for their favorite wings from among the vendors at the festival.

Bring blankets, chairs, and picnics, but no alcohol may be brought into Town Center Park. Beer and wine will be available for purchase from concert vendors and licensed Town Center merchants.

Limited parking is available in the downtown area. A free shuttle bus will provide transportation between Town Center and the offsite parking location at Shawnee North Business Center, 305 Shawnee North Drive at Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road. The shuttles will run from 5:30-10:30 p.m.
